Review: Perfect upgrade from my apartments not smart T4. - I live in an apartment which has the cheapest Honeywell T4 non smart/ wifi thermostats installed in the units. I wanted to use Alexa to control my room temp so I bought this for a perfect upgrade. It took less than 10 seconds to install. I just pulled off my old one and pushed in this new T5 and done. Easy 5 minutes to run through the wifi and app setup process and everything worked like a charm. My apartment had the exact same 5 wire pin out on the back so I didn't need to change that, I didn't need to open up the bag of screws or anything. A monkey could have done this upgrade. The touch screen looks really really nice, I can read the clear temp numbers from across my large living room. The app is easy to use and the touch screen is just as simple and easy to figure out. If you are doing an upgrade like myself but your current thermostat wiring is missing the 5th "common" wire, then this model won't work. You would need to get the Z model T6 that comes with batteries for the backup power. They will provide the common wire power. Hope this helps you out.
Review: I could just about drop kick this "smart" POS. - What can I say, it is a thermostat and it looks nice, I bought it for these reasons. I bought it in April of 2023 right after I had a leak repaired and the old thermostat looked very dated in a freshly painted room. It installed very easily and It really does look nice and new in the room. Once up I was pretty happy with it. I set a schedule and that's where the enjoyment stopped. As time went on I began to wonder if I had a leak or something, I had one in the past after all. It would not cool, and the temperature in the house would rise. I'd set it to 71 but the temp would slide degree by degree to 77 (which is what it was scheduled to hit at 11pm) and stay there for the night. Suddenly waking up freezing in the morning. The pillows in the bedroom were muggy and damp intermittently. Some days we'd sit at 77 degrees for no reason. The heat pump is running near 24/7 trying to cool the house.... Luckily I am pretty DIY and troubleshooting for hobby so I bought gauges to monitor my unit and learned what Superheat and subcooling are. I determined that I don't have a leak! So what is it? I have an energy saver cycling box from the power company, I have that taken off, it takes a few weeks for them to do it. but my problem persists! I'm going mad, inject dye to search for leaks? I change filters, etc etc. anything i can. I'm debating draining the unit, perhaps the repair guy put in too much or incompatible oil! I begin to suspect the thermostat, all the internet says it couldn't be the thermostat, no no It could never.. But I say I say you know what let's reset the thing and strip away features. So I did, Reset it, turned off scheduling, wifi, and anything else "smart", got into the special menu and found "adaptive recovery" looked it up and determined this and scheduling were my problems! Because I wanted 72 from 8am to 5pm but the 77 at 11pm. The stupid "smart" algorithm thought that meant I want to be 72 in 8am and for the rest of the day slowly drift to 77 by 11pm and then freeze us half to death at 5am to be 72 again by 8am. If I set my schedule to all 72 degrees it will never leave 72 even on a "hold". I assume because of crap programming that adaptive recovery does not take into account the "hold" or manual input/changes which is bullcrap. I decided to see how badly programmed this algorithm was. I put a schedule on with crazy temperatures like 50F at 8am and 90f at 5am or something. The stupid thing would actually turn the HEAT ON to after 8am so that it be 90F by 11pm even though the cool setting was set to be 50F at that time. what a dumb program. Heating when it should be cooling! I was smart enough to figure this out and disable these features, I won't even use the schedule now Im too afraid too Which is same because I really wanted to let the AC drift off temp at night but its not worth it to trigger the "smart" alogrhtium's stupidity which seems to have the ability to override your manual temperature settings even without being turned on. I see no where to fully disable this "smart" features. I feel bad for anyone that calls HVAC specialists to try to fix these issues and they get talked into the a whole new system because of some programmers' poor programming skills.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ an easy DIY to save money and schedule your AC/heat!
*by M***I on February 16, 2025*

i don’t know why it says that this is a frequently returned item, this is a great thermostat. we wanted something fancy, but not too fancy. once you get too fancy, things get too complicated and don’t work as they should... but THIS! this is the perfect fancy, but not too fancy, still easy to use and not complicated - thermostat! i love that i can control it from my phone using the app and set schedules for “away” and “home” times throughout the day to essentially have it not running, etc. it’s a great little unit! it’s also pretty, i love the dark screen and the touch screen. definitely a great and affordable asset to be more energy efficient! install was pretty self explanatory, just follow the prompts and answer the questions in the set up menu on the device. i think you’ll like it!
